Re: Random Site Slowdowns?
Same for me. And it's only this site. And I also doubt it has something to do with hosted projects, because the slowdowns apeared from one day to the next, before I had no problems at all. Just for a few days now :(

Re: Random Site Slowdowns?
I'm getting it too; thought it was the net in general but it seems to be HLP most notably. Forgive my paranoia, but could it be some kind of Dinal-of-service attack or something like that? There's a lot of 'guests' online at the moment (66 when i last looked), could it be to do with that? That probably sounds really silly but i have no idea about that sort of thing so i wouldn't know.

The are always quite a few guests on line.  Some are just people with accounts that didn't bother to login, others are actual guests.
No-one ever listens to Zathras. Quite mad, they say. It is good that Zathras does not mind. He's even grown to like it. Oh yes. -Zathras

Re: Random Site Slowdowns?
I have to say I've been getting this as well, for a while now.
It got pretty annoying today, 45 seconds or so to load a page here and in GW  :(

This would be a prime opportunity for our new tech admin to show his stuff.  However, we're still not sure if he will actually be our new tech admin yet. ;)  Please continue to stand by.

Re: Random Site Slowdowns?
I did a few minor tweaks to Apache and MySQL (unrelated to the slowdown problems though) and rebooted the server. Hopefully that helps some.

I lent a hand because this slowdown started to piss me off too.

That does seem to have helped a lot. Thanks Fury.

Much better :)

Re: Random Site Slowdowns?
That did the trick.  Thanks Fury.

 
Re: Random Site Slowdowns?
Much better indeed, here as well as on GW. I bet the server reboot did the trick, gj Fury :)

So HLP admins can actually reboot the server it's on? Remotely?

Oh, looks like I'm not the only one experiencing this issue. My internet connection switched to Gastropod mode in the past few days.
